Cinder Data Source Driver¶
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/congress/+spec/cinder-data-source-driver
This blueprint is to add a data source driver for cinder.
Problem description¶
A datasource driver is required to expose block storage parameters to the Congress policy framework so that we can write policies involving block storage entities. Cinder is the OpenStack component that provides block storage service. The cinder-datasource-driver interacts with cinderclient to provide block storage specific states to congress for policy monitoring.
Proposed change¶
Add data source driver that integrates congress with cinder.
